Hello, the answer for your question is<span> 12.7.</span>
As we travel from (-2, p) to (2, 2p+1), x increases by 4 and y increases by p+1. Note that -2 + 4 = 2 (which is correct), and that p + (p+1) = 2p+1 (which is also correct).
p+1
Thus, the slope of this line is m = rise / run = -------- = 9
4
Then p + 1 = 36, and p = 35.
Answer:
y=-4x+9
Step-by-step explanation:
y-y1=m(x-x1)
y-(-3)=-4(x-3)
y+3=-4(x-3)
y=-4x+12-3
y=-4x+9
Putting it into a calculator, we get 0.125 as our answer
